How To Turn Slope Intercept Into Standard Form?

Start with slope-intercept form: (y = mx + b)

Move the (mx) term to the left side

Rewrite as ( -mx + y = b )

If needed, rearrange to match standard form (Ax + By = C)

Make (A) positive by multiplying the entire equation by (-1) if necessary

Clear fractions or decimals by multiplying every term by the same number

Ensure (A), (B), and (C) are integers if possible

Final form should look like (Ax + By = C)
